I hope he wins Massachusetts. That is an important state. If he does I think after that the industrial states, far west and mid Atlantic he should do OK.

It doesn't bode well in the GE for congressional races if he is not the nominee as I think it will lead to a lower turnout in the GE, particularly among the young.

He has written a new essay complaining that "White Privilege Helps Hillary Clinton Survive Controversy. Bernie Sanders Was Arrested in 1963."

I'm not sure that he's the guy to lecture anyone on "White Privilege," first of all, and the fact that a person was arrested before many of his fans were born--and then hasn't put himself forward in the intervening decades since--well, I'm not really sure what that's supposed to mean. I get the sense that young Mr. Goodman is furious that some people don't see things the way he sees them, and he's "explaining" to them. He should read Charles Blow before he starts writing.

in a roundabout way. The privileged yatterings of his white male followers alienates everyone else.

In answer to your question: My future depends on elections in the USA.

I want to know why SidDithers makes that his business, seeing how he's a citizen of Canada.

working? Am I misinterpreting this remark?

I want to know why SidDithers makes that his business, seeing how he's a citizen of Canada.


Why would his citizenship matter? I am an American citizen, does this mean I should not care who rules over Russia? China? Iran?

Your comments--and your focus on Sid Dithers' citizenship--are very curious indeed.

You're having this out on a public board, where anyone can join in. I have no "authorization" save a membership on this board, and a keyboard.

Kinda cute how you tried to link me with Sid. I just don't like seeing people get pushed around because of where they live or other personal characteristics.

No idea why you would think I'd care about some old post you wrote from three years ago, like it's "important." You'll have to explain the point you are trying to make with that link, because I'm not getting it.

He couldn't be hurting the poor guy more if he tried--he's a perfect example of a guy who needs to "stop helping."
